Mr.. GRIMM S LEGISLATION.

Hon. Geo. Grimm is the author of a
bill for the punishment of tramps, which
has passed the assembly. It provides for
the Imprisonment OF tramps in the county
Jail at hard labor, or IN solitary confine-
ment when there is no labor for them.
The bill aims to prevent the evasion OF
the tramp laws which has heretofore been
practiced by the officers and justices OF
the peace, it is claimed, by committing
Migrants on some petty charge for short
period, aud on their release, with the
consent of the tramps, recommitting them
on like charge, thus making number OF
fees out Of the same man, keeping him
all winter and providing him with read
ing matter, cards, tobacco, and in some
cases even liquor, and by such treatment
inducing tramps to remain during cold
weather at great expense to the counties.
The bill imposes a fine of $500 on every
officer found guilty of collision with such
parties to increase the emoluments OF
their offices, and also that upon such con-
viction such officers shall be ineligible
for election or appointment to any county
office for the ensuing five years. No
sheriff or officer shall receive from
county compensation for boarding or
keeping any tramp not convicted under
this statute. The measure solves the
tramp question in a very satisfactory
manner for the taxpayers and is one OF
the most important bills introduced into
the legislature this winter.
Mr.. Grimm's bill to enable the town of
Jefferson to settle with creditors, has
passed both houses. By the provisions
of the bill the town of Jefferson is author
lied to issue new bonds in exchange for
the bonds heretofore issued to aid in the
construction of the Wisconsin Central
aud the Chicago, st. Paul & Fond du
Lac railroads. G. Grimm, Ira w. Bird
and G. j. Kispert are appointed commits
sioners under the act and empowered in
behalf of the town of Jefferson to COM
promise and settle with all creditors

Care of the Teeth.

An experienced dentist directs his patients
to care for their teeth as follows: Always
brush them in the morning before breakfast -
first with water only, then with powder
Powder should be used at least once day !;
without it teeth cannot be kept clean. To
brush etfectually place the upper and lower
rows of teeth parallel to each other, the points
Of the fronts touching, then use your
brush up and down the teeth between the
gums, brushing the gums as well as the teeth,
thereby toughening the one and cleansing the
other. Your back teeth need more brushing
than your front ones You will be wise to
show a partial care for the back and outsides
of the rearmost teeth above and below. After
each and every meal use quill toothpick or
waxed floss silk, and rinse the mouth with
moderately cold water, The intention is to
remove food from among the teeth. Decom-
posed acidified food, animal or vegetable, is
the worst enemy of the teeth.

II there is a possibility of choice, a large
sunny room should be selected for an invalid !;
IL without carpet so much the better, says
trained nurse. The Importance of sunshine
can scarcely be overestimated. Cases have
been known Of wounds that had obstinately
refused to heal yielding to treatment after
being exposed few hours every day to the
direct action OF the sun. Sunshine is CAPT.
tai disenfectant and should never be excluded
from the sick room except by express orders
of the physician. The first canon of nursing,
says Florence Nightingale, is to keep the air
a patient breathes as pure as the external air,
without chilling him. In most modern
houses the upper sash of windows lets down
and may he kept open few inches. If there
is the slightest draught, it may be prevented
at small expense by having light wooden

netting is fastened, about eight inches in
width, made to fit the upper part of the win

Plain Suggestions for Every Day.

II door has a spring on it, do not let it
slam after you
See that your feet are clean before entering
any ones house.
If you find a door closed, close it again as
you pass through.
Do not scratch matches on anybody else's
walls or woodwork.
II you visit reading room, be careful to
put back papers and magazines in their
proper places.
Do not talk so loud at places Of amusement
as to disturb others and prevent their enjoy
ment OF the performance; by so doing you
rob them Of part Of that which they have
paid for and virtually pick their pockets.

Healthful Sleep for Children.

A very important portion Of the life OF
children is the time given to sleep. During
the period Of growth the constructive opera
tions OF the body continue active by night as
well as day, therefore all the influences sur
rounding children, even more than grown
people at night, should be healthful.
As far as possible children should have
separate beds, even If two are in the same
room. The sleep will be sounder and more
refreshing, consequently more conducive to
health.
A common and most mistaken habit is 10
allow young children to sleep with aged peo-
Pile A straw pallet on the floor would be
far better. During the nutritive regenera-
ton OF the tissues which takes place in sleep,
a child would be heavy loser if lying close
to person OF declining years. Impure air
also tells much more quickly upon child
than grown person. A want Of ventilation
through the night in the nursery may explain
why many child goes to bed laughing and
good natured, and wakes up in the morning

Two Important Duties,

hostess should remember, says Mrs. Sher-
wood, when she asks people to visit her, that
she has two important duties to perform
one, not to neglect her guests; the other, not
to worry them by too much attention Never
give guest the impression that he is "being
entertained" that he is on your mind Fol
low the daily life of your household and your
duties as you desire, taking care that your
guest is never in an unpleasant position OF
neglected
In II country neighborhood it often occurs
that hostess cannot avoid asking her guests
to 90 to some stupid entertainment or to be-
come acquainted with her country neighbors.
The guest, however, who has no interest, be-
ing stranger. in these local matters, ought
to he permitted to decline said Inequalities il
he chooses. Many guests, especially those
who have come from an active life of social
dissipation i'll some city, greatly prefer the
quiet solitude Of the country garden, the
veranda or a walk through the woods to
social parties, where the people they meet
will be strangers.

New Wraps and Jackets.

There seems to be no arbitrary rule at the
present time in matters Of dress. Every lady
may consult her own individuality and still
be fashionably attired. Both double and
single breasted jackets are to be worn
French jackets in various styles are appear
ing as part of many spring toilettes. A ia
vorite shape has revers upon the front at each
side, vest effect underneath, the back fall
ing in two box plaits over the tournue.
Another is cut double breasted with dag
onal revers of velvet up one side and is per
fectly fiat over the hips and at the back.
Among spring wraps may be seen dolman
shapes with short jacket backs and long tab
fronts, very short visites with sling sleeves
and Russian hood, and still others have the
fronts gathered to point, and finished with
heavy silk cord and jet tassels.

A LibernI Use of Disin fectants.

1t matters not how good your plumbing
may be, the use of disinfectants is advisable
Your security will be greater if every week
you use disinfectant libefally. One that
costs very little and is perfectly odorless is
made by dissolving heaped teaspoonful Of
nitrate of lead in quart of boiling water,
stir it with a stick and then add to it pail Of
cold water. This is odorless and will not
stain 1t costs about three cents, and if 1t is
thrown once week down the bath tub closet
and stationary wash bowl it will be money
we'll spent. Another disinfectant may be
prepared, only use something of the kind reg
ulary on certain day. If day for doing a
thing is fixed it generally gets done; if "once
week means any day it is often forgotten.
